Saint-Gobain Plastic Films and Tapes

Skived PTFE film is "skived" or cut from a cylinder using a lathe in USA Germany or China. It is produced in very clean areas with a major focus on contamination control. State-of-the-art skiving lathes make it possible to control to the tightest tolerances in the world. Paste extruded PTFE is produced by pressing the film through an extrusion die. Paste extruded film is unsintered.
